Ah, Apotheon, I'm Comprehending Just Fine
Here's your quote:
"Imagine for a moment that Microsoft wants to sell Vista, instead of XP."
From that, you are correct, but then you went on to say:
"this is obviously the case."
And then to top it off, you said:
"Are you entirely unaware of how the software industry actually works"
OK, so you never did actually say MS stopped but like always, you heavily insinuate and suggest which I believe serves only to mislead the reader and you do it on purpose.
Once again, you are wrong and have a hard time admitting it.
MS may have started down the wrong road as far as making XP hard to get a hold of. But a few things.
1) It was always available
2) They corrected their actions based on feedback from customers
That kind of behavior isn't of a mean spirited, greedy corporation. That kind of behavior to me looks like they responded to customer feedback and responded in a pro-customer service kind of way.
